Abstract:
Some implementations of the present disclosure provide a method that include: accessing a plurality of measurement logs taken from more than one well locations of a reservoir, wherein the plurality of measurement logs encode, for each well location, a plurality of parameters; based on applying a petrophysical model to the plurality of measurement logs, determining the plurality of parameters; based on a portion of the plurality of parameters, calculating a compressional formation slowness and a shear formation slowness; and predicting a fluid type at the more than one well locations of the reservoir based on combining the compressional formation slowness and the shear formation slowness with at least one of the plurality of parameters.
